Recipe for Pistachio Pudding Cookies


*Find the recipe card with a full printable recipe at the bottom of the post.


Ingredients:


  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour measured correctly
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup salted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 3.4 ounces instant pistachio pudding mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pistachios


Instructions:


Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set to the side

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt and set aside.

Using a stand or electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar on high speed until light brown, at least 2 minutes.

Once combined, add the pudding mix, vanilla and eggs and beat on medium speed with an electric hand mixer for 3-4 minutes

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and turn the mixer on low to start, after about 1 minute then turn the mixer up to high and mix until combined.

Add Pistachios into the cookie dough and stir with a rubber spatula until mixed thoroughly

Use a cookie scoop and make even balls and place everything on a cookie sheet. Place dough balls onto prepared cookie sheets about 2 inches apart from each other.

Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes or just until edges have lightly browned; don’t over bake as the soft center of the cookies will continue to set outside of the oven while cooling.

Allow cookies to cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Keep your cookies fresh and tasty by storing them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or pop them into a freezer bag where they’ll stay good frozen for three months.
